- Founder of SaaSHub
- $10,000+ SaaSHub monthly revenue
Ryan Doyle tweeted about SaaSHub.com back in September…
Cool, high-earning business I ran across
SaaSHub just shows a listing page for different tech tools, bringing in 1.3m views a month
Costs $99/m to be on the featured page.
With 108 featured listings, that’s over $10k MRR. Wow.
Right now I’m counting 106 featured listings on this page, and the price has been raised to $130/month.
So that’s $13,780 per month in revenue 💰
Stan Bright is the founder of SaaSHub, started it back in 2014.
Update: a correction from Stan regarding the above estimate…
The current price of a featured listing is $130; however, it hasn’t changed for old customers! So, the total is still hovering around $10k/m 😉
Stan used to share his revenue numbers – $2.7K/month in Mar 2021 – but this post on Indie Hackers might have convinced him to stop doing that.
The interesting thing to me about SaaSHub is that the content seems to be mostly user generated. SaaS companies submit their products by filling out a form, and can then pay to be featured 🤝
Stan explains here why companies take the time to submit…
you will have a permanent do follow link + relevant presence.
Stan’s other site is LibHunt.com, which is pretty much the same thing except for open source projects.
That site apparently gets 1.7 million visitors per month. But given that open source projects don’t have money to spend, LibHunt seems to be monetized entirely with display ads.
Good chance that site is also earning Stan $10,000+ per month 🤑
It can be hard to get traction on these directory sites, but they seem to be a very good business once established, especially when the content is mostly user generated.
What other niches/industries could this work for? 🤔
